We have a wide range of topics from comedy to spirituality. Our guest’s are from all walks of life. We’re looking to touch your heart, help you laugh and create a new pathway of understanding with people.

►Why & how did you start this podcast?

I've been doing radio for 30 years. I love all formats of broadcasting. No, not much, I don't listen to any podcast unless I am a guest on them. Most of the time. I am in the studio or out doing stand up comedy, psychic medium readings, or doing things on my honey-do lists for my wife. So I got rid of the extra girlfriend. In reality, I just started to podcast. Since I had a little extra time from my relationship from being on good behavior. I just started my podcast about a week ago from this date July,7-8-2018, because I have a lot of interesting guest and stories to share. It didn't take that long to release my first podcast because I had a lot of material "New" and old productions in the works.

►How'd you find the time and funding to do this podcast?

Whenever my wife takes off my handcuffs. I try to produce 3 to 8 episodes a week. Generally speaking, I can spend hours recording, and nothing will come out decent. Other times, I am on a roll. It just seems I am sure everyone has those days of non-productivity. I Believe it's all about timing and synchronicity. I don't have to sell my body on the corner (No). Nor do I work with the mafia's wife's being a dance host. It's about living your dreams life is too short to waste time. I know we all have to make a living, I just hope people enjoy what they are doing. I have to live life to the fullest with God's grace and love and faith. Its a hard task to market but I make the time. I try to balance everything in my life unless I am locked up in a padded cell. So far, I fund these podcast myself. I am always looking for someone to help me fund my creativity

►What do you gain from podcasting?

Yes, of course, I'll take sponsorship. It's just not a good idea to rob a bank. (All kidding aside). I am looking for a sponsor that has both of our best interest. I have to no sponsor's right now. Broadcasting or podcasting is the same for me. I also have an internet radio station I own and operate from my home. I am looking for more podcast or music (With No Charge) to add to our station. I benefit by sending Hope, Love, and Laughter to people all over the world.

►How does your podcasting process look like?

I have a couple of nice soundboards. One is a Yamaha Mg16XU. I have an apple computer with software called pro sound forge which I record onto the computer. Or I just use the old method with a tin can an string the sound quality isn't the best. I have professional sound equipment with the finest mics two Elecllovoice RE20's. Guest arent away's easy due to their time constraints, but i make it happen. I also meet guest through performing and on my IMDB page I can contact anyone. It just takes patience and persistence and kindness mix with common sense. I interview guest in person and through my phone. I need to work on getting a better phone to record our interviews. As far as preparing our shows. it's just a matter of getting my butt out of bed.
